Time and Space Tavern

Chapter 73 Magician

"Let me introduce. This is Mr. Song Chengfeng. We will perform a magic trick in a while. I don't know what show you have?" Song Feifei's eyes were full of pride.

Huang Xiaomi snorted and said, "None of your business."

Zhang Yunqi's body tensed, and she gently tugged Huang Xiaomi's arm.

Tang Wei subconsciously looked at Qiao Mu - the man in front of her gave her a bad feeling, especially the sinister gaze, which made her feel uncomfortable all over.

"What we perform has nothing to do with you." Zhang Yunqi glanced at Song Chengfeng warily, and said lightly.

"Really... Don't wait until the performance ends and no one participates in the auction. That would be embarrassing." Song Feifei raised a contemptuous smile at the corner of her mouth.

The "magician" Song Chengfeng, who had been silent all this time, moved closer and put his arm around Song Feifei's slender waist, and said in Cantonese: "Feifei, don't talk nonsense with these unqualified mainlanders!"

At the reception, almost everyone understood Cantonese, and many people's expressions turned gloomy for a while.

"What the hell are you!" Huang Xiaomi puffed out her chest and choked.

"Really?" Song Chengfeng had a sly smile on his face, making people shudder inexplicably.

Seeing that a quarrel was about to break out here, An Nuoxi, who had been paying attention, hurried over and smoothed things over with a smile. With a few words, the tense atmosphere between the two parties was temporarily suppressed.

Qiao Mu admired this woman's skills, but she was thinking about Song Chengfeng's eyes full of meaning.

That look made Qiao Mu feel extremely uncomfortable.

Song Chengfeng...

Qiao Mu turned on the phone, and soon Lolita found out the identity information of the other party.

There was a flash of surprise on his face, but also a bit of indifference.

……

The reception was vaguely divided into two circles. One was dominated by Song Feifei and others, and the other was centered on Huang Xiaomi and others.

It looks peaceful on the surface, but everyone can detect the cracks and confrontations within it.

An Nuoxi, who organized this charity reception, looked a little unnatural, annoyed that she had neglected the conflicts among these young people.

From the conversation between Huang Xiaomi, Zhang Yunqi and Qiao Mu, Qiao Mu gradually learned that the source of the conflict was nothing more than a conflict of interests between outsiders and local aborigines.

Song Feifei is a member of the Song family on Hong Kong Island. This family was the leading big family on Hong Kong Island during the British rule.The people around her are also local chaebols or family members on Hong Kong Island.

Huang Xiaomi, Zhang Yunqi and others are typical outsiders. Even though they have considerable power and assets, they are still hostile by those local forces.

After all, the cake is only that big, and every time there is one more person, I will eat one less bite.

The two sides have been unable to see each other.A few years ago, Song Feifei even slapped Huang Xiaomi hard.

"That's a vixen who eats people and doesn't spit out bones." Huang Xiaomi glanced at Qiao Mu while speaking.

Qiao Mu shrugged, indicating that he was not interested in that woman.

"You better be careful about that Song Chengfeng." Zhang Yunqi said solemnly.

"Isn't he a magician? I heard that he only became popular on Hong Kong Island this year." Huang Xiaomi said disapprovingly.

"I also think something is wrong with him," Tang Wei said.

Zhang Yunqi frowned slightly, and said: "His identity is not that simple, not to mention, don't you know that woman Song Feifei? She is not absolutely sure, she can't take the initiative to protest with words."

"Tch, I dare to sing on stage, what are you afraid of!" Huang Xiaomi looked fearless.

……

Qiao Mu silently listened to the conversation of several people. During this period, several people also came to greet him and exchanged business cards.

His business card was prepared by Tang Wei for him. In addition to the title of "Wei Yu" as the vice president, he also had the name of the owner of "Joe's Tavern".

It's a pity that although the tavern is famous in Dingbei City, not many people know about it in Hong Kong Island, thousands of miles away.

The soothing music gradually became passionate, and the reception reached a critical point, and the charity auction began.

The first is An Nuoxi, she sang an old song from the past, which is still beautiful.

The microphone in which she sang was photographed by a young man at a price of 36 Hong Kong dollars, which was a good start.

Then a young man came on stage and played and sang a song. The guitar was auctioned by another person for 12.

……

Most of the people who came to this charity reception were young people. At the beginning, it was considered that it would be easier for young people to communicate with each other, so An Nuoxi didn't care about the conflict between the local faction and the foreign faction.

There are a total of more than 20 people listed as guests, and some of them are several people cooperating to perform a show, so it is not too slow.

It didn't take long to arrive at Song Feifei.

She stepped onto the stage gracefully, picked up the microphone and smiled, "I'm not talented, but I'm very self-aware, so I invited my good friend, Song Chengfeng, a magic genius known as the 'Hand of Darkness', to perform a magic trick. , I am his deputy."

There was a burst of good-natured laughter during the reception, and some people shouted things like "Feifei is so humble."Obviously, there are many locals here.

"Pretending to be a ghost." Huang Xiaomi's round face showed undisguised contempt.She could guess what the other party meant by "self-knowledge", it was nothing more than knowing that she was going to sing and taking the opportunity to mock her.

Zhang Yunqi frowned, looking at Song Chengfeng who was coming to the stage gracefully.

She works in the military and knows more things than a few people, but there are some things that have no evidence and it is inconvenient to say them out.

What Song Chengfeng was performing was a poker magic trick. The movements of his hands were not fast, but no matter who watched it, it always made people feel drowsy. A veil of mystery.

Among the crowd, only Qiao Mu's eyes remained clear.

"I see." There was a flash of understanding in his eyes.

The performance ended soon, Song Chengfeng stood on the stage, raised the playing cards in his hand and said: "For this charity party, I will take out this set of Taoist playing cards for auction."

An Nuoxi came to the stage to preside over the auction.

The first person to make an offer was Song Feifei, who offered 10 yuan.

It's not uncommon to bid on friends' belongings at charity receptions, so it's no surprise to others.

After she bid, other bids soon followed, raising the price to 30 within minutes.

This price made some people look astonished.

Although it doesn't sound good to say it, the so-called charity reception is actually more of a social meeting to expand contacts. It is good for everyone to show some money, and if there is too much, people will laugh in private.

When the auction price reached 30, it stopped somewhat.

Qiao Mu looked sideways, and saw Song Chengfeng standing in the corner of the stage squinting his eyes, his lips trembling, and a faint "Qi" came from his wrist.
